GRR: National Teams

See the video below to get you in the mood (if you don't see the embedded video, refresh the page).
The USA is in Pool C with New Zealand, France, and Portugal, a pool they should expect to get out of and into the Cup Quarterfinals.
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates – The Women's Eagles Sevens finished pool play at Emirates Airline Dubai Rugby Sevens 0-3 after a 35-5 defeat to Canada Thursday, dropping into Friday's Bowl competition.
The USA men’s 7s team opens up its 2015-16 World Series season in a little more than a day, and it’s an important time for the Eagles.
Coming off a win in the last HSBC Sevens World Series tournament, the United States team won’t be able to sneak by anyone. And at the same time, the Eagles start their series at a tournament that has historically been very difficult for them.
Nicole Heavirland is now a member of the Women’s Eagle 7s player pool training full-time at the Olympic Training Center. Details regarding the USMA student’s contract have not been released, but the former cadet arrived in Chula Vista, Calif., on Nov. 24 and will not be returning to West Point after Thanksgiving break.
If there’s one thing USA Men’s 7s Coach doesn’t want, it is for his squad to sit on their laurels.
